Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2015-10137 affects the Website Contact Form With File Upload plugin for WordPress. In versions up to and including 1.3.4, the plugin's upload handling in the 'upload_file()' function does not properly validate uploaded file types. Because of this missing file type validation, an unauthenticated attacker can submit arbitrary files through the plugin's upload functionality and have them stored on the target server. If the uploaded file is executable in the target environment, this can lead to remote code execution.

2 valid exploits after Mallory filtered fakes, detection scripts, and README-only repos.
This repository contains a Python exploit (EXP.py) and a detailed README for a file upload vulnerability in the WordPress nMedia Website Contact Form with File Uploader plugin. The exploit script automates the process of uploading a PHP webshell to the vulnerable endpoint (/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=nm_webcontact_upload_file) by abusing the lack of file type validation. Upon successful upload, the script extracts the webshell's filename from the server response, verifies its accessibility, and provides an interactive shell for remote command execution. The README provides in-depth analysis of the vulnerable plugin code, the root cause (lack of file type and MIME checks), and example HTTP requests for both benign and malicious uploads. The exploit is operational, providing a working webshell and interactive shell access if the target is vulnerable. No specific CVE is referenced, but the target is clearly the nMedia plugin for WordPress. The main entry point is EXP.py, written in Python, and the payload is a simple PHP webshell.
This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a file upload vulnerability (CVE-2015-10137) in the WordPress N-Media Website Contact Form plugin version 1.3.4. The exploit works by sending a specially crafted multipart/form-data POST request to the /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint, abusing the plugin's file upload functionality to upload a PHP payload. Upon successful upload, the payload is accessible in the /wp-content/uploads/contact_files/ directory and is then executed to achieve remote code execution. The module is fully integrated with Metasploit, allowing for customizable payloads and automated cleanup. The code is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's HTTP and file dropper libraries. No hardcoded IPs or domains are present; all endpoints are relative to the target WordPress installation.
